Los Cabos Highlights

Los Cabo's legendary 'Marlin Alley' has lured sportfishing aficionados for decades, but these days whale-watching, golfing and partying are edging out this traditional pastime. If that's not your cup of tequila, spend an extended siesta on miles of postcard-perfect beaches.

With a handy international airport nearby and a necklace of luxury hotels lining the coastline, Los Cabos is no longer an out-of-the-way holiday spot. Cabo San Lucas is the traditional heart of the area; nearby San José del Cabo is the smaller, quieter section of Los Cabos.
